At last, together in one collection, are Lisa Scottoline's wildly popular
Philadelphia Inquirer columns. In her column, Lisa lets her hair down, roots and all, to show the humorous side of life from a woman's perspective. The Sunday column debuted in 2007 and on the day it started, Lisa wrote, "I write novels, so I usually have 100,000 words to tell a story. In a column there's only 700 words. I can barely say hello in 700 words. I'm Italian." The column gained momentum and popularity.

New York Times best-selling author Lisa Scottoline and her daughter Francesca Serritella are the best of friends - 99.9% of the time. They’re number one on each other’s speed dial and they tell each other everything - well, almost everything. They share shoes and clothes - except one very special green jacket, which almost caused a catfight. In other words, they’re just like every mother and daughter in the world. Best friends, and occasional enemies. Now they’re dishing about it all....

Mary DiNunzio has been slaving away for the past eight years trying to make partner in her cutthroat Philadelphia law firm. She's too busy to worry about the crank phone calls she's been getting - until they fall into a sinister pattern. The phone rings as soon as she gets to work, then as soon as she gets home. Mary can't shake the sensation that someone is watching her, following her every move. The shadowboxing turns deadly when her worst fears are realized, and she has to fight for something a lot more important than partnership: her life.

Because going home means seeing the other two people with whom she shares an unbearable secret. Twenty years earlier, a horrific incident shattered the lives of five teenagers, including Allie. Drinking and partying in the woods, they played a dangerous prank that went tragically wrong. The teenagers kept what happened a secret, believing that getting caught would be the worst thing that could happen. But time has taught Allie that not getting caught was far worse.

Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom.

Then Bernadette disappears. It began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette's intensifying allergy to Seattle - and people in general - has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands.

Hidden gem of a book!

Publisher's Summary

Lisa Scottoline and Francesca Serritella are back with another collection of warm and witty stories that will strike a chord with every woman. This four-book series is among the best-reviewed humor books published today and has been compared to the late greats Erma Bombeck and Nora Ephron. Booklist raved of the third book in the series, Meet Me at Emotional Baggage Claim: "[R]eaders can count on an ab-toning laugh session, a silly giggle, a sympathetic sigh, and a lump in the throat as life’s moments are rehashed through the keen eyes and wits of this lovable mother-daughter duo."

This fourth volume, Have a Nice Guilt Trip, maintains the same sterling standard of humor and poignancy as Lisa and Francesca continue on the road of life, acquiring men and puppies. To be honest, Lisa is acquiring the puppies, while Francesca is lucky enough to have dates with actual men. They leave it to the listeners to decide which is more desirable and/or easier to train.

Just what we needed

New to audio books-my daughters boyfriend broke his neck due to a car accident. We visit him an hour away every weekend. After an unusually difficult visit it is so nice to be entertained by your reality. Hits the spot. Thank you for the smiles when so needed.

BLEH! Don't bother with this one!

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

I'm not sure what was worse, the fact that someone wrote a (supposedly) humorous book about getting wasted and farting with mom, or the fact that it was made into an audiobook. I was hoping for something heartfelt - I got vapid, shallow women with gas.

Would you ever listen to anything by Lisa Scottoline and Francesca Serritella again?

NO.

Would you be willing to try another one of Lisa Scottoline and Francesca Serritella ’s performances?

NO. Why waste more time on this drivel?

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment and feeling like a wasted a free download. Bewilderment as to how this POS book could have sold at all.

Not My Cup of Tea

Any additional comments?

I’m going to have to give this an unusual review, because I love Lisa Scottoline for a variety of reasons. I love her Rosato & Associates mysteries. I love that she lives in and uses the Philadelphia area in her books. I love her daily posts to Facebook, with her darling King Charles Spaniels. I loved the Giveaway that she had with the release of Have a Nice Guilt Trip. All of that being said, I didn’t love the Audible version of Have a Nice Guilt Trip. I think that it’s possible I might have enjoyed reading it more than listening. I’m definitely anxiously awaiting the release of Betrayed: A Rosato & Associates Novel on November 25, 2014. Sorry, but for me, Have a Nice Guilt Trip was not a great listen.
